Beliefs:

Shona (Church of the Nexus, Bridgemakers): Everything is connected. Understanding how helps us understand the universe. Systems and communities are the best examples, but there's more to it than that. The connections themselves need to be understood, not just that they exist. Put two and two together, sure, know it's four, but also know why.

Afterlife:

Followers of the Nexus believe that they will find Enlightenment in death if they are connected well enough to the world. They believe that those who fail become part of the collective memory and aide those still living, and that those who succeed find the Bridge to the Next Realm and become connected to something completely new.
